The band said that they have had an "amazing" response after their sold out shows in Derry, as well as headlining festivals across Ireland, Canada and Europe this summer.

“We are buzzing to perform our debut headline tour in Ireland. We spent years messing about with instruments and singing in our bedrooms as a hobby, and now we get to play our own music in front of audiences on our own stage in our own country,” said Lavengro on their latest tour.

Following the release of their earlier 2024 releases ‘Lie’ and ‘Stuck in My Head’ the band has said that they had “extensive airplay” including playlists on 2FM's, Iradio, Q Radio, Cool FM, Beat 102103, and the RTE Radio 1 'Recommends Playlist'.

These successes have catapulted Lavengro to one of the top five most played Irish artists in the country.

Lavengro has likened themselves to bands such as 5SOS and The Vamps, calling their sound “versatile” with “catchy melodies and upbeat anthems, with elements of pop rock and indie,” and this continues with ‘Lost in Heaven’.

Describing their latest track, the band said the song “captures the essence of a hypnotic youthful and passionate relationship, akin to experiencing ‘Heaven’ on Earth and evokes an overwhelming sense of love and connection which will resonate with young pop fans everywhere.”

Lead singer Gareth Borrow said: “This song is about having that ultimate fantasy in your head about being with someone you really want. It’s about visualising what it would feel like being with them, and wondering if somehow they feel the same way.”

Finally, the band said they are thrilled for their fans to experience their latest track and that they can't wait to see you on their live Irish tour.
